Backing Paper 1 - Marble Rolling

If you want to make your own backgrounds for cards or ATC's you could experiment with marble rolling.

If you have one, wear an apron for this.

you need 1 tray.
1-3 marbles
teaspoon - might come in handy!!
a sheet of paper
paint in a variety of colours.

put each colour of paint in a seperate container, into each one add a marble.

now put a sheet of paper onto the tray. now place the marble/s onto the centre of the paper, and gently tip the tray in different directions. Stop when you are happy with the result!!

Once it's dry you can ask an adult to help you cut this to the size you need. When this is done you can add it to the card or ATC.
